Intended Use
The Tornier humeral plate is indicated for simple or complex fractures, fracture dislocations, osteotomies, and non-unions of the proximal humerus.
Device Story
Unity Humeral Plate provides temporary fixation for proximal humerus fractures. Device is pre-contoured to fit proximal humerus anatomy. System utilizes combination of orientable screws, locking screws, and cortical screws to achieve compression and angular stable locking. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings for fracture management. Output is mechanical stabilization of bone segments to facilitate healing.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Stainless steel (ISO 5832-1) or low nickel stainless steel (ASTM F2229). Design: Pre-contoured plate with orientable, locking, and cortical screws. Principle: Mechanical bone fixation via angular stable locking and compression. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Not specified.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with simple or complex proximal humerus fractures, fracture dislocations, osteotomies, and non-unions.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.

Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows a black and white emblem. The emblem features a symbol of three stylized human profiles facing right, with flowing lines suggesting movement or connection. These profiles are positioned to the right of a circular arrangement of text. The text is small and curves along the circle's perimeter, making it difficult to read without higher resolution. The emblem appears to represent a health or human services organization.
